IPv6 Test Plans

The test plans on this page may be downloaded and used for internal purposes only. The test plans may not be commercialized in any way without express permission of the UNH-IOL.

The IPv6 testing service currently offers the following test plans. These documents are constantly being updated to improve readability and to reflect the current specifications. Please contact us if you would like more information or have questions about the IPv6 testing service.

When testing based on the following test plans is performed, all reports generated will be digitally signed using an Adobe digital certificate. Upon reception of the report, the recipient can verify its authenticity using our document validation instructions.

IOL

Conformance

The UNH-IOL will offer testing designed specifically for the USGv6 test program (http://www-x.antd.nist.gov/usgv6/test-specifications.html) Basic Requirements and the IPv6 Ready Logo Core Program.
This is a converged test suite that covers multiple RFCs to test IPv6 implementations. This test suite can be used to apply for a IPv6 Ready Logo Core Protocols. This suite of tests is also intended to help implementers evaluate the functionality of their products that support IPv6. The following IETF documents are covered: RFC 2460, RFC 4861, RFC 4862, RFC 4443, RFC 5095 and RFC 1981.
